Molemo ‘Jub Jub’ Maarohanye is expected to appear before the Germiston Magistrate’s Court on Monday, 15 June 2026, following his arrest in connection with an alleged kidnapping and shooting incident involving an e-hailing driver in Edenvale.

The driver managed to escape unharmed and reported the matter to police, who arrested the 45-year-old shortly afterwards.
Maarohanye is expected to face charges including kidnapping, unlawful discharge of a firearm and defeating the ends of justice. Police investigations into the incident are continuing.
